* According to the end credits, there's a character named Xaltotun in the 2011 movie. I don't recall the name ever being uttered during the film. In the original stories by Robert E. Howard, Xaltotun is the major antagonist of ''The Hour of the Dragon'' - and he happens to be an Acheronian sorcerer. It would have been so natural to include him in the film, but apparently his name has been relegated to some minor character?

*** Conan the King was planned as a third movie in a Conan trilogy, and elements from ''The Hour of the Dragon'' would have been a good fit (as Conan has already become king of Aquilonia in that story). The failure of Conan the Destroyer doomed that project, but it looks to be headed for a revival (possibly with Creator/ArnoldSchwarzenegger in the lead again!)
I haven't read any Conan stories but how come Conan is always pictured as wearing barely any clothing or armor? Is he that sure of himself that he is never going to get cut or wounded?

* I find myself equally as interested in the FramingDevice about the Eastern Prince as I am in Conan's exploits. But my question is, why does Dark Horse keep restarting this story? I have all the [=TPBs=] released so far and at least three different books start out with the Prince stumbling on Conan's tomb/treasure horde and discovering the Nemedian Chronicles, then continue the Conan story where the last book left off. So is this a genuine b-plot that is actually going somewhere or not? If not, why bother with it in the first place?

* You know what bugs me? The random link to this page from {{Conan}}... as in Creator/ConanOBrien.
